3 TAMCO DAMPERS DELIVER LONG-LASTING CONSISTENT PERFORMANCE. TAMCO dampers underwent cycle testing, simulating up to 250 years of service life. The dampers maintained consistent leakage rates throughout the cycle test (less than 3 CFM/ft² at 1 w.g.). Equally impressive, TAMCO s blade and side seals remained entirely intact. These results proved the resilience of TAMCO s silicone side seals and the reliability of TAMCO s linkage components. Consistent Performance TAMCO SERIES 1000 SM UL/ULC Approved Smoke Damper TAMCO Series 1000 SM UL/ULC Approved Smoke Dampers are constructed with silicone seals, specially formulated to resist extremely high temperatures. The dual bearing system is composed of an inner and outer bronze-oilite bearing, fixed to an aluminum hexagonal blade pivot pin, preventing direct rotation of the bearings within the frame and around the axle. Standard blade depth is 6 (152 mm). TAMCO Smoke Dampers are installed to operate automatically and are controlled by a smoke detection system. Where required, they can be positioned from a remote command station. UL/ULC rated Leakage Class 1, the best possible leakage class attainable.

8 Options for TAMCO Dampers All TAMCO control dampers and some specialty dampers are available with a selection of options which enhance their performance under a variety of climactic or environmental conditions. ELEVATED TEMPERATURE ET OPTION For Series: FB WT 7600 CW 7600 CWA Suitable for high heat environments where temperatures may reach as high as 300 F (149 C), and where UL/ULC regulated control dampers are not a requirement. This option is ideal for dampers intended for use in back-up generator stations, where excessive heat may be an issue. It is well-suited for test laboratory applications, wherever high-heat conditions may exist. The Elevated Temperature Option is also a practical solution in mildly acidic applications, where Celcon bearings may not withstand environmental conditions. Blade and frame seals are extremely flexible, extruded silicone, ensuring minimal change in leakage rates as temperature increases. Celcon and polycarbonate bearings are replaced with bronze-oilite bearings. MOISTURE RESISTANCE MR OPTION For Series: FB WT 7000 CW WT 7600 CW 7600 CWA BF All zinc-plated, steel hardware is replaced with stainless steel, thereby providing protection against rust and corrosion. Suitable for applications where dampers are exposed to extended periods of high humidity or high moisture. The Moisture Resistance Option is a cost effective alternative to the Salt Water Resistance Option for applications where salt spray is not a concern. NOTE: When multiple-section dampers are ordered with MR or SW Options, stainless steel jumpers and SW Option horizontal jack shafts replace standard jumpers or horizontal jackshafts. 7 TAMCO JUNE, 2016

9 TAMCO dampers with added options maintain all of the dependability and durability of our slip-proof linkage components, the advantages of aluminum construction, and maintenance-free operation. Options for TAMCO Dampers SALT WATER RESISTANCE SW OPTION For Series: FB WT 7000 CW WT 7600 CW 7600 CWA BF The extruded aluminum frames and blades are all clear anodized to a minimum thickness of 0.7 mil (18 microns) deep. The frame is assembled with stainless steel screws. Stainless steel hardware, linkage parts and screws replace all zinc-plated steel components. All aluminum linkage hardware parts are clear anodized. Blade and frame seals are extremely flexible, extruded silicone. Ideally suited for coastal climates. Recommended for inland applications, where tire spray from winter-salted roads has been known to corrode dampers installed in close proximity to roads or highways. Excellent solution for high humidity applications such as water treatment facilities, municipal pools and greenhouses. TAMCO Salt Water Resistance Option OUTPERFORMS Stainless Steel & Galvanized Steel ASTM B117 SALT WATER SPRAY TESTING TAMCO s Series 1500 damper with SW Option, a Brand X stainless steel damper and a Brand Y galvanized damper were exposed to 1000 hours of testing in a Singleton salt spray cabinet. Base opening and closing torque requirement readings were taken before testing, and changes in torque readings were recorded at regular intervals, as testing progressed. The opening and closing torques for the TAMCO Series 1500 damper with SW Option were unchanged after 1000 hours of salt water spray testing. The surface of the Series 1500 damper with SW Option showed no change other than a small accumulation of salt residue, which was easily wiped off with a damp cloth. % TAMCO SERIES 1500 WITH SW OPTION % BRAND X STAINLESS STEEL % BRAND Y GALVANIZED STEEL 8

10 SEVERE COLD TEMPERATURE SC OPTION For Series: 9000 The SC upgrade option is designed for severe cold temperatures, down to -40 F (-40 C). Blade and frame seals are extruded silicone, replacing the standard EPDM seals. This ensures minimal change in leakage rates as temperature drops, making this damper ideal for severe cold weather applications. (Silicone combines features of silica, silicate minerals, and organic compounds which result in an inertness towards deteriorating effects of ozone, corona, weathering, and other forces, yet incorporates an extraordinary flexibility.) Leakage rate through a 48 x 36 (1220 mm x 915 mm) Series 9000 damper, with SC Option, at 1 w.g. (0.25 kpa) pressure differential is no greater than 0.89 cfm/ft² (4.5 l/s/m²). Silicone is virtually unaffected by cold winter temperatures. Air leakage tests performed in a cold chamber revealed that silicone seals allowed only a minimal increase in the leakage rate from 40 F (4 C) to -40 F (-40 C). Cold box testing revealed no discernible change in flexibility, or compressibility of silicone between 70 F (21 C) and -40 F (-40 C) in NOTE: Silicone s superior dynamic fatigue resistance ensures consistent sealing performance and longevity. It also provides excellent resistance to weathering, compression set, and heat. Even though general-purpose silicone can withstand up to 500 F (260 C), the upper operating temperature of the entire damper is 212 F (100 C). Silicone seals have an estimated service life of 30 years. EXTREME COLD TEMPERATURE ECT OPTION For Series: 9000 BF The ECT upgrade option is specifically designed for extreme cold temperatures below -40 F (-40 C), down to -100 F (-73 C). Formula for ECT silicone seals is the same as that used by NASA for its Aerospace program. Leakage rate through a 48 x 36 (1220 mm x 915 mm) Series 9000 BF damper, with ECT Option, at 1 w.g. (0.25 kpa) pressure differential is no greater than 0.89 cfm/ft² (4.5 l/s/m²). ECT silicone is virtually unaffected by cold winter temperatures down to -100 F (-73 C). Cold box testing revealed no discernible change in flexibility, or compressibility of ECT silicone between 70 F (21 C) and -100 F (-73 C). 9 TAMCO JUNE, 2016

11 TAMCO SERIES 1000 Classic SW Option Retrofit Project In Southern California BEFORE RETROFIT This is a shining example of a Before and After story! The photos just about say it all! In January 2016, The George Yardley Company (TAMCO s exclusive representative in California) supplied over 300 square feet of Series 1000 Air-Foil Control Dampers with the SW Salt Water Resistance Option for a retrofit project in Huntington Beach. The existing dampers had been installed in 1982, when the mutli-tenant office building was originally constructed. Within a few years, the dampers rusted in the salt air conditions. The linkage components seized and eventually failed, as they corroded and as rust accumulated. AFTER RETROFIT Sue Rogas, of The George Yardley Company met with the design engineer and also conducted site visits with several bidding contractors. Based on Sue s recommendations and the fact that TAMCO was the basis of design, TAMCO s SW Salt Water Resistance Option with SW jackshafts was selected for the outside air, mixed air, and relief air dampers. The contractor was highly impressed with the quality, appearance, and performance of the installed dampers. He thoroughly enjoyed working with The George Yardley Company and with TAMCO.

12 TAMCO MANUFACTURING LOCATIONS IN Ottawa, Ontario, Canada & Nashville, Tennessee, USA. DUAL BEARING SYSTEM TAMCO s Dual Bearing System is a self-sealing, selflubricating, and non-absorbent assembly. It will never require additional lubrication and ensures consistent and totally maintenance-free performance. TAMCO s Dual Bearing System is superior to industrystandard metal-on-metal, metal-on-plastic, and nylon bearings, which require regular lubrication and eventual replacement. Metal-on-metal and metal-on-plastic bearings have traditionally been one of the weakest links in damper operation. In contrast, TAMCO's bearing-to-bearing arrangement eliminates action between metal-to-metal and metal-toplastic riding surfaces, resulting in a service life of well over 20 years. Replacement bearings (which fit TAMCO dampers exclusively) have not been required in over 35 years, where dampers have been installed according to TAMCO s guidelines.
